During the course of this project, the main focus will be on the market research aspect of TraffiCore, a traffic monitoring and control automation startup which aims to provide traffic managers and controllers with a useful tool that can automatically perform the repetitive and mundane tasks that are usually perfomed manually and suboptimally. The intern […]

This project has developed a real-time digital monitoring system that identifies people at risk of sudden cardiac arrest by analyzing their heart signals (ECGs). By combining a machine learning model with cloud-based technology, the system automatically updates each patient’s status and sends alerts if a risk is detected. This enables the partner organization to provide […]

We are developing a conversational AI system that helps hospitals and cancer centers find the right patients for clinical trials much faster and easier. Currently, research staff spend weeks manually reading through hundreds of pages of patient medical records to see if patients qualify for specific cancer treatment studies, which means many patients who could […]

This research-based project aims to make developing virtual reality (VR) applications faster and easier by using generative AI tools. By streamlining the development process, the project can help both companies and individual developers save time and resources. This is especially valuable for Calgary’s growing community of VR businesses and research labs. Overall, the project supports […]

This project will develop a plan to bring a new worker fatigue monitoring system to market. The system uses wearable sensors and artificial intelligence to detect when workers are becoming tired, so that action can be taken to prevent accidents and keep people safe on the job. During this project, market research will be done […]

I intend to commercialize a foundation model for forecasting energy production and consumption time series, addressing challenges like renewable integration, storage optimization, and demand-supply balancing. Resources such as HVACs, EVs, ESSs, and solar roofs introduce uncertainty due to temperature sensitivity, price response, and weather variability, making grid management and the transition to smart grids more […]

During this Accelerate internship, we will push ZPC’s current dilution refrigerators to new heights of performance and reliability by harnessing modern machine-learning and AI techniques.

This project explores the market opportunity for a next-generation intracranial EEG (iEEG) electrode system that integrates optical and oxygenation sensors to enhance brain monitoring in clinical and research settings. The proposed innovation addresses a critical gap in current neurodiagnostic tools by enabling simultaneous acquisition of electrical activity and hemodynamic signals from the brain. This dual-modality […]

This project aims to develop an innovative, low-cost technology to prevent methane leaks from oil storage tanks, addressing a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. Traditional tank valves either release harmful gases into the air or are costly to operate. Our proposed solution is a specialized membrane valve that allows harmless gases, such as nitrogen […]

Surgical trainees, our primary users in medical schools and teaching hospitals, face a critical barrier: limited access to consistent, expert-guided, hands-on practice. This limitation originates from the constraints of the conventional surgical training model, which depends heavily on the physical presence of expert surgeons. To address this limitation, we are constructing a robot-assisted surgical training […]

Cities and lighting companies currently spend weeks and tens of thousands of dollars to create new plastic lenses every time a different streetlight beam is needed or when light pollution must be reduced. Our design is a simple film that sticks to the front of an LED and updates the light patterns quickly—no new lens […]

This project will advance the development of AR-CAD, an innovative augmented reality (AR) design tool that allows engineers to create and manipulate 3D models in real-world scale using a headset. Unlike traditional CAD tools that rely on 2D screens and complex interfaces, AR-CAD enables intuitive, hands-on design, helping users visualize and validate parts more quickly. […]
